The NivoBob NB 3100 is a highly reliable electromechanical level measurement solution engineered for continuous monitoring of bulk solids in storage silos. Designed to perform efficiently across a wide range of materials, including powders and granulates with low dielectric constants, it ensures consistent and accurate level detection. This makes it an essential component for industries requiring dependable inventory tracking and process optimization.
Key Features
- Continuous and precise level measurement
- Suitable for powders, granules, and bulk solids
- Performs effectively in low dielectric materials
- Robust aluminium housing with high protection rating
- Advanced self-diagnostic capability
- Menu-driven quick setup for ease of operation
- Multiple signal output options for integration
Application
The NB 3100 is widely used in industries such as cement, agriculture, food processing, plastics, and chemicals. It is ideal for monitoring storage silos, ensuring accurate stock management, and preventing material shortages or overflow. Its ability to handle challenging bulk materials makes it suitable for both light and dense solids.
Design & Functionality
The sensor operates using a proven electromechanical plumb bob principle. A weighted probe is lowered into the material, and the system detects the level based on the distance traveled. This simple yet effective mechanism ensures high reliability even in dusty or uneven material surfaces. Its rugged design allows operation in harsh industrial environments with extreme temperatures and pressures.
Total Crossed Beams
The system ensures consistent measurement accuracy by maintaining stable probe movement throughout the measurement cycle. This minimizes errors caused by uneven bulk material distribution.
Beam Pitch Options
Flexible measurement configurations allow adaptation to different silo sizes and material types, ensuring optimal performance across applications.
Intrinsic Synchronism
The NB 3100 maintains synchronized operation between mechanical and electronic components, delivering precise and repeatable measurement results.
Operational Advantages
- Prevents silo overfilling and material loss
- Enhances inventory accuracy
- Reduces manual measurement efforts
- Improves plant safety and efficiency
- Minimizes downtime with reliable diagnostics
